#1
AMD
4.5
(31)
"If you want the best gaming experience: AM5 - more precise Zen 5 X3D (9800X3D CPU), B850 MB will provide you with everything you need"
"Get a deal on r/buildapcsales with a ryzen 7600/7600x (seen 7600x+mobo+32gb ram+nvme for $350)"
"If there’s room in the budget, a 5800X3D would be a solid upgrade, way better gaming performance"
"Pair it with a 7600x and you have yourself a cheap effective gaming machine that should run everything."
"CPU-Wise the 9800x3D is best-in-class for gaming, if you can find one in stock at MSRP."
"Otherwise the 7800x3D is much cheaper (around $360 nowadays) and probably better value."
"R7600(x) and AMD 7800XT"
"Switch to AM5 socket AMD and make a DDR5 system. for example b650 motherboard-amd ryzen 5 7600x - ddr5 16x2 6000 mhz cl30-36 ram"
"Yeah the Ryzen will be a MASSIVE upgrade"
"I have no problem running MSFS maxed out at 1440p with my 5600x and 6800XT."

NVIDIA
4.2
(13)
"Thanks a lot, 3070ti it is then."
"You can't go wrong with a Ryzen 5 3600 and a 2060 Super or 5600 XT."
"I was until recently running a Ryzen 9 3900X, RTX 3070 Ti, 64GB RAM, and I didn't notice the FPS fluctuations much."
"Fortnite seems to run better on NVIDIA cards, so just buy whatever is within your budget."
"I'd bite the bullet and just include that in the cost of the build and throw in a 4060 to start."
"The 980 should be fine for the other games, but yeah, I don't think that's going to be enough to run hogwarts super well."
"Ive heard great things about the i7 12700k. Also dont need much more than a 3070 ti for graphics. Unless your budget allows it."
"Possibly a rtx 3070/3080 would be a good middle ground."
"Anything with a GPU of 1070 GTX or better (6GB VRAM) can still compete."
"You absolutely don't need a Quadro. Geforce will be more than enough, especially when you're starting uni."

"I used to run KSP on an i5 3300 desktop and 1050 TI, although with only Scatterer and some parts mods."
"I have a laptop with i5 10300h and 1660 TI. I can run visual mods just fine and parts mods don’t really tax specs anyway."
"I've got a 9950x and a 3090 ti."
"9950x3d and a 5090"
"That came out in 2013. It's used, I wouldn't touch one that old with a 10 foot pole."
